Wronskian(f, t, det)
f
-
list(algebraic); a list of expressions defining a function from to
t
name; the variable of differentiation
det
(optional) equation of the form determinant = true or false; specify whether to return the determinant (default: determinant = false)
The Wronskian(f, t) command computes the Wronskian Matrix of the function f with respect to the variable t. This is an Matrix A such that where .
The det option specifies whether the determinant of the Wronskian matrix is also returned. If given as determinant = true, or just determinant, then an expression sequence containing the Wronskian matrix and its determinant is returned.
The determinant option was introduced in Maple 15.
